Real Luck Group names Bo Wänghammar to board of directors

The firm, which operates the Luckbox esports betting brand, has appointed Wanghammar as the fifth member of its board.

Canada.- Real Luck Group, which operates the Luckbox esports betting brand, has appointed Bo Wänghammar to its board of directors. Wänghammar will replace Mike Stevens, joining chairman Drew Green and fellow directors CEO Thomas Rosander, Lloyd Melnick and Maruf Raza.

Wänghammar worked as director of international projects and managing director of casino at PokerStars, and as CEO and business development director at Mr Green & Co online casino.

Real Luck Group CEO, Thomas Rosander, said: “I am thrilled a seasoned operator such as Bo will be joining our board. This is an exciting stage for the company as we look to scale our user acquisition efforts and revenues and I believe his experience and guidance will be invaluable to Real Luck’s growth strategy.

“His track record speaks for itself, as during his time as director of casino at PokerStars, he oversaw the doubling of revenues to more than US$500m, growing the casino vertical to outperform the core poker offering. During Mr. Wänghammar’s time at Mr Green the business grew quickly and achieved strong profitability and we believe he was instrumental in refactoring the technical infrastructure to launch a portfolio of award-winning products.”

Real Luck recently announced the appointment of Benn Timbury as chief operating officer. Timbury has extensive experience in igaming, player acquisition and retention, B2C and B2B partnerships, and global acquisitions.
